My surgery was Monday and feel the exact same way. I didn't eat at all in the hospital. Hang in there.

I talked to the surgeon today. He is ordering me Zofran. I am drinking enough Water... He said some people just get hit harder with nausea. Hang in there and call the Dr if you need something for it. My surgery was monday, and 5 days later I am so sick to my stomach I had to call.

Hang in there. Mine was Monday and I've had it rough too. This morning I woke up with less pain. Just called the Dr due to how severe my nausea is. Hoping for a prescription of some kind.

Welcome to the losers bench!!

I haven't called but will most likely call tomorrow. I don't want to eat anything. I am because I know I have to but would rather not.

Congrats!

Mine is Sami M Sleeve. It stands for "Small Angry Monster Inside" Me Sleeve. I was just sleeved Monday and this thing is monster!

They gave me anti nausea meds in the hospital. Didn't send me home with anything. I just had another wave but I was able to breathe thru it.

I don't either. I think we just need to be patient with ourselves. I envy all the people with no complications and who were able to stop their pain med. I am definitely not one of them.

I am. But today it was at least dry. Hoping for better feelings every day.

It's taking me an hour to drink my protein shake

You have more than me ( it's 11AM here). I have has 33 Oz of water, 12 of them came from my protein shake. I'm really pushing to drink. It's not easy for me being so nauseous

Every morning I wake up dry heaving. Today I didn't bring anything up but the other days I have. It's very painful and happens the moment I sit up.

You sound like you are doing great smcbee. Just keep an eye on the heart rate and don't delay seeing the Dr if you get any other symptoms. I am so nauseous it's horrible. I did enjoy my protein shake today though so I'll take it.

No drain here. I drank 12 ox protein drink this morning. Took an hour but went down well. Also dry heaving in the mornings. Blah

Does brand matter?

Sorry whitty, I didn't have any issues pre op.

Thanks everyone. Both sides of it sound awful. I'm so nauseous though it's making me feel awful.

Good lord. I went in with it, and was assured it was from the pre op diet, but never expected to come out with it. I heard all the stories of people not able to go for days, yet the day after surgery I came out firing... literally. I think my lack of gall bladder does this but just curious if anyone else had experience.

I'm still semi miserable. By far worst surgery I have ever had and this is #8 for me. I am really concerned with getting my fluids and protein in. Your heart can also race from pain. Just keep a close eye on it.

Keep an eye on it. Fast heart rate could be the sign of a leak. I also had my surgery Monday. I'm not home yet due to the sever nausea and vomiting. I have no hungry or desire to drink. How are you doing at home?

I started thinking about yoga the other day. And how peaceful it seems. I think that will be my first adventure.

Count me in. Check in at 11:15 on 11/16. I'm counting that as a good sign!

Totally something I would have tried at some point...lol

Always double check with your surgeon, however one of my asthma inhalers is a steroid. I asked about that. They said it was fine because it doesn't go to the stomach.
